Comments on: BMW Hydrogen 7 Scaling Back Operations But Are They Really? http://www.hydrogencarsnow.com/blog2/index.php/hydrogen-cars/bmw-hydrogen-7-scaling-back-operations-but-are-they-really/ Fri, 10 Feb 2012 01:33:46 +0000 hourly 1 By: alan http://www.hydrogencarsnow.com/blog2/index.php/hydrogen-cars/bmw-hydrogen-7-scaling-back-operations-but-are-they-really/comment-page-1/#comment-6470 alan Thu, 09 Sep 2010 16:00:18 +0000 http://www.hydrogencarsnow.com/blog2/?p=920#comment-6470 Here is what BMW need to do. Build us something like the Prius or Chevy Volt. Base it on a 1 series BMW, but keep this technology. Keep the ICE powered engine, have a small hydrogen tank which can give a range of 40-100 miles, with the switch over to gas after that. Have the car refill the hydrogen at home overnight. this way they can keep the liquid hydrogen technology and at the same time bring to the public a viable system. If this works, it could be adapted for any car, any engine - what a way to make the existing ICE infrastructure more viable and relevent!? BMW could the retrofit its existing cars as well. That would be a nice option. Here is what BMW need to do.
